The Lost Art of Biblical Preaching
What makes a preacher truly effective? Is it talent, charisma, or something deeper? In this episode of the Christianly Podcast, Dean Defuria and Tony Wood discuss the lost art of biblical preaching—what it means to preach with authenticity, conviction, and faithfulness to Scripture. They explore the qualifications of a preacher, the dangers of seeking influence over holiness, and the importance of expository preaching.
